Society once believed
the laws say so
better to have us dwelling
living in our own homes
But some need assistance
aides and funding
services for those disabled
for the innocents among us
struggling just to survive
The budget removing
all hope for these people
those who will die hungry
or sleeping in shelters
Those who cannot live alone
who need services
those who have no one else
who need our love, compassion
the threads of the safety net
March 16, 2011
Cuts approved by the NH House Finance Committee and
Constitutional Amendment proposed by Rep. Neal Kirk
to remove safety net of town welfare
&
Leviticus 4
&
calling on the NH Legislature
and the Governor
to spare those without a voice
those who need us
from the severe budget cuts
that are currently planned
in HB1 and HB2, etc.
